Following potential 2014 draftees

He's underrated by people like you, because he played on a weak team in a high profile conference.

As an Illinois fan who watches Big10 BBAll I can tell you this about him. His guards did not feed him the ball enough down low, He is an excellent defender and he is super young for his class.
 
If Randle's measurements come in long and big at the combine then he will be flying up my draftboard. Its quite possible too. He is still so young. Could be growing still.

Randle is being treated a little bit like how Parker is being treated around here. Way too much nitpicking at their games. We are talking about very young kids still, who play like grown men already, and are far better prospects than other kids most years. . The future could be very bright for both Randle and Parker.

If Randle were drafted last year, he would have easily been the number 1 overrall pick. Thats another thing to consider here.

If Vonleh measures in at 6'10 or higher, he will go ahead of Randle and Gordon on my board.

I agree with your second to last sentence but not sure how it matters here.
I am basing my opinion of Randle mostly on his lack of length and explosiveness.
He has a very nice skillset, but he gets off the floor slowly and moves a bit too slow side to side.
I do think he'll be good, but I'm just sliding him down because of a pedestrian ceiling to his game.
